Community Council Recommendations
North York Community recommends that:
1. City Council deny the request for a permit for the removal of one (1) privately-owned tree at the rear of 88 Dunblaine Avenue.
Origin
Summary
This report requests that City Council deny the request for a permit to remove one (1) privately-owned tree located at the rear of 88 Dunblaine Avenue. The owner is requesting removal to accommodate installation of a swimming pool. It is not possible to retain the tree if a pool is to be installed.
The subject tree is a 105 cm diameter silver maple (Acer saccharinum). This tree was recently maintained and is in fair to good condition.
Urban Forestry does not support removal of the tree due to its condition. The tree provides benefits to the community and should continue to do so for many years.
